china feud. washington. calls on other nations to join forces. in the great city of. his decision to peer into a mosque. right from turkey is because they have a great deal of. infection

right. looking at just about. the families. of people. the feud between the world's 2 largest economies china and the united states is ratcheting up in a cold war style standoff lasted an hour after chinese officials left the consulate in houston following orders to close that facility u.s. authorities and officials were forcibly in the building the area was cordoned off and a group of men was spotted trying to break in using tools for their money to enter

the building the officials. seen trying 3 separate entrances without success clean as seen meanwhile taking out rubbish at the u.s. consulate in the chinese city of chengdu as thought america to vacate the premises on a tit for tat measure. this all comes as a chinese researcher was arrested by u.s. authorities in beijing's consulate in san francisco she's accused of not disclosing her military affiliations in her visa application is one of 4 visiting researchers who recently faced allegations of visa fraud strongly condemns the crackdown urging the u.s. to stop harassing chinese students and researches of these don't call it a look at the reason their skill ation in tension between the 2 rivals and the latest cold war style rhetoric coming from u.s. secretary of state. since the 1970 s. u.s. foreign policy has used more honey than vinegar and its dealings with beijing china has definitely changed as

a result but not exactly the way washington wanted it to you know the world was much different than we imagine think you shouldn't which and it would produce a future with bright promise of comedy and cooperation. but today today we're all still wearing masks and watching the pandemics body count rise because the c.c.p. failed in its promises to the world if we want to have a free 21st century and not the chinese century of which being dreams. the old paradigm of blinding gauge with china simply won't get it done pompei of speech seems to have a lot in common with that of winston churchill's when he declared an iron curtain had descended across europe dividing it into soviet and western spheres it was the beginning of the cold war and with pump ails us against them rhetoric another cold war between the u.s. and china may be brewing this isn't about containment don't buy that. it's about a complex new challenge that we've never faced before. the u.s.s.r.

was closed off from the free world communist china is already within our borders washington's hostile stance is no doubt part of a recent pitfall in sino u.s. relations while waistband in the u.s. accusations of tech that disputes in the south china sea it's all reminding experts of a warning former president richard nixon made decades ago we must cultivate jointed during the next few decades want it is learning to develop its national strength and potential otherwise we will one day be confronted with the most of the middle enemy that has ever existed in the history of the world unfortunately for washington nixon was right when he was president china was still an economically backwards country with its eyes on rapid development fast forward to the present and the communist party has accomplished much of what it set out to do it's lifted millions out of abject poverty. it led the country to what looks like a quick recovery from the covert 1000 pandemic and it doesn't seem willing to stop in the face of washington statements. remarks which ignore facts and often of

ideological bias and cold war mentality are a hodgepodge of political lies intensively made recently by senior u.s. officials accusations of human rights abuses authoritarian name calling pump alles even label china system a new tyranny does all sound a bit crusading but then again it's not anything new in america's foreign policy playbook the troika of tyranny in this hemisphere cuba venezuela and nicaragua has finally met its match pressers regimes and ideologies forces of oppression to tell a tear in ism and domination well despite the trumpet ministrations best efforts the so-called troika of tyranny is still around even where u.s. backed regime change was successful it's still no walk in the park in iraq the government is basically powerless to combat militias that see it as a us puppet and in countries where the u.s. failed like venezuela it's a huge waste of taxpayer money china though is

a lot more powerful and with u.s. allies unwilling to get behind this new strategy pompei all might need to rethink his approach because. code to work has already. been studied and actually in my opinion corners code to work between china and america right now much talk during a positive because the united states has never spoke to you know we all think you know who you were talking to wouldn't do. thinking about china you know who were very clear which country we tracked him an issue to me more. in the war in the war definitely specially distributed question many people don't understand i think did you do your knowledge do you to do you really need to and who would be in. interference in the other countries you. angry protests across greece have followed the reopening of higher saffir as

a mosque on friday the former museum held its inaugural muslim prayers. orthodox protesters burned turkish flags. later rebuked the greek authorities for allowing the burning of their national symbol a mistake has marched on the country's concerts and to salonica and chanted anti angry slogans condemning the reconversion is what some of them had to say. this is a totally barbaric and on civilized move turning highest of fear into a mosque this act goes against all of the dogs people this is not right from the turkish because they have be your churches to created the about. muslim prayers to crowds of worshippers who filled the nearby square to his president brigitte typepad when was also in attendance surrounded by senior officials the turkish leader or to submitted in the service and recited verses from the qur'an he then expressed his delight at the reconversion. music you learn in them. this is

been a yearning since our youth we used to say let the chains break in high is the fear open as a mosque we've ended an 86 year period high as the fear has now returned to its essence it was a mosque and it's a mosque a game. there's been some back and forth in the history of fires the fear originally was built by the roman empire as a cathedral then it became a mosque after the ottoman conquest 9035 it was converted into a museum but earlier this month turkey transformed it back into a mosque the unit is chris unthought a former greek um buster to canada believes that the change interferes status is a matter of turkish domestic policy. well i think that he was doing it all maybe also for internal reasons because his popularity is dropping now in that turkey because of the economic crisis and also my pressured is that he is trying to

put down at that the founder of modern turkey so this is an attack also against the demolished regime in turkey so basically it's an internal problem that has international ramifications i don't think that he cares anything about statements being done the only thing that she might care would be if concrete measures were taken like the e.u. taking sanctions against against turkey for violating international law and violating that there are real integrity of 2 of its member states which is greece and cyprus we must not forget that the e.u. has taken sanctions against russia for reasons much less. and which which i personally don't don't agree with them and yet it refuses or the moment to take sanctions against turkey. in england face coverings are now

mandatory in public spaces this however has raised the question of who should monitor and he compliance some shop owners are saying they won't and forth in the room and you can correspond to the early reports. from friday it's now mandatory for people in england to wear a face mask when they're going to shop supermarket for the guard to pick up a delivery now we're going to go on to the streets of london to try to see what the public think they should've done before the crane virus point to lock down the fact they're trying to find people a 100 pounds. and probably money other people's health just that the kind of public picture or government. i think we should have been implementing from the beginning . i think it's important to abide by these rules because i think there's a lot of science that goes behind coming up with these rules most of the shops that i went into weren't really enforcing the rules those that were just said that they would recommending people to wear masks to cover their faces now many of those shop

workers don't want to be enforcing those rules because they fear aggression and backlash from certain members of the public if they were to try to make people wear masks with hundreds of incidents of violence and abuse directed at retail staff every day we welcome there now assman that in force much will be left to their thoughts rather than potentially put in hard working retail colleagues in harms way if. someone refuses to wear a face mask probably we can kindly asked him to leave but as to enforcing it it's not it's viable it will be certain people would be upset about it. and they did the most controlling boss for us also as well is our weekend in force of the don't always encourage people to have it but. god knows how rude and sort of the government of said that those who refuse to wear face masks when going into shops

could be fined up to $100.00 pounds should an individual without an exemption refuse to wear a face covering a shop can refuse them entry and can call the police if people refuse to comply the police have formal enforcement powers and can issue a fine and the police don't seem to be too keen either saying that making them in force that is both unrealistic and unfair policing the wearing of face coverings in shops can't be a priority because we simply don't have the resources to expect my colleagues to be policing the supermarket aisles looking for those shoppers not wearing a face covering is unrealistic and unfair the u.k. has had one of the worst coronavirus death tolls of any country around. the world there are some who say that these measures are better late than never but many others here feel that it's far too little thought through like the sally off the lawn the. people in the far eastern russian city of her bout of

protesting for a 3rd consecutive weekend in support of the former governor said was arrested earlier this month on allegations of ordering murders 15 years ago let's not focus on the brand if the protests understand no sign of them dying down or why the local outrage. people are still upset as you mentioned for a 3rd weekend in a row this is 7 times to the east of moscow near the pacific ocean in the region of about of people feel that their governor who was arrested earlier this month. in a very high profile case that he was arrested. with the that his arrest was politically motivated that he was arrested unfairly and treated unfairly and basically they they want him back they want his case to be reviewed. saying if god was arrested for his apparent role suspected role in the kidnapping and murder of

several entrepreneurialism 20042005 authorities have been investigating those cases that they found enough evidence to arrest him to arrest them and to take further action but people are upset those who voted for him those who supported his governorship many years they feel that this is politically motivated and again while the protests have simmered down somewhat from a high of 35000 or so people now we have from 622-0000 depending on who you ask people demonstrating again and still agri that he was arrested. but the most i went out into the streets because i could you not take it anymore i'm boiling over and such was support for girl we want justice to prevail and i don't like the political situation in the country i am dissatisfied with our

government and officials it is a simple as that. society is mature to the point of expressing its indignation about what is happening in the far east just. say gay fergal was incredibly popular among voters among constituents in the region in the city of the bought of he was you know he was an out there governor he would always go and engage constituents and voters he travel to remote areas always have an ear open or channel open to hear complaints from from the wider public and suddenly out of nowhere he's arrested and a new governor a temporary governor is assigned by moscow and people people are angry because they had a lot of trust before goll they they also don't have any trust for this new government many of those people protesting there now they say he has no new routes to the region he has to do new links and ties to the region he doesn't feel the voters the people there nevertheless the new governor because. he says that he's up to the job

that he did the trees you know open to to to working with constituents and working with people there and that he did gauge the protesters who he believes a better off you know a channeling their energy into something more productive like volunteering public workers social work and he says that he's going to engage those. that are that are in remote areas of this fall flung region. you know it's a little bit let's respect each other let's work together as i've been doing for 4 days in the governor's office i came here all of your complaints are taken into account so that all government bodies work smoothly i will spend the weekend on a trip around tomorrow school region through. the protesters see his refusal to come out and engage them to talk with them viz these mass crowds us

as weakness they say the t's afraid of. the e.u. on the other hand says that he has basically better things to do than engage in these are necessary protest over what he says is nothing. but i saw a correspondent run against. looking forward at the fiction bond brought in for the pandemic spas in america plus many people fearing they might be thrown out onto the streets will bring the full story and others after this break.

you cannot be bold with yet you like. the world is driven by a dream shaped past and present those great. new dares thinks. we dare to ask.

back another standoff between protesters and federal forces in the u.s. city of portland things got violent when people marched on the federal courthouse where they were mats with tear gas and rubber bullets. federal forces were sent in early this week by president donald trump to quell anti racism protests the white house claims that the marriage organisers lost control of the city also residents and business owners complained that their city has been

turned also more than a dozen u.s. mers most of them democrats have voiced alarm about the federal crackdown the u.n. now voicing concern over the disproportionate use of force by those troops. peaceful demonstrations that have been taking place in cities in the u.s. such as portland really might be able to continue with that those positions beaten them and i'll say the people reporting and them the journalists risk an arbitrary address to tashan being subject to unnecessary disproportionate or discriminatory use of force or suffering other violations of the your rights. the justice department announced this week that it would look into the actions of federal law enforcement in portland 18 people have been arrested for their role in the riots the federal charges include arson vandalism assaults and failing to comply with lawful orders we heard from people in portland. that card by the drum circle wasn't even close to stanley it was 30. 3rd and the 3rd.

and having it would sit right with the rubber. like. it was. the reverse of. the chief of the u.k. arts charity has accused british museum to being hypocritical in their support of the black lives matter movement francis says that these institutions should 1st relinquish items in their collections taken by force from africa he explained to his his position. you've got to clean up your own house before you start talking about other people. it's contradictory really to not have dealt with the whole issue the colonial problem and also the lack of.

the work. also and also support those matters incompatible to me. the comments come after several high profile galleries and museums responded to the black lives matter movement with words of support for example the british museum director wrote a blog post last month which said that the museum stood in solidarity with the black community throughout the world. but the british museum itself has been under pressure for years to return works of art looted from former colonies include the then in bronze is taken by british soldiers from nigeria the greeks pathan the marbles and an easter island statue u.k. legislation currently prevents national institutions from returning looted items in their collections except in the case of art stolen during the nazi era but a british museum spokesperson said the institutions working on changes when it comes to displaying objects and is being open about the history of the collections is our own francis again he says museums need to change. the role of museums is

being called into question and also the means by which their collections have been assembled is being questioned there's quite a lot of documentation about how these objects came into the possession of the museum the all we need to know is whether or not it was taken with consent when asking for a new kind of music that is more humanitarian and pays greater attention to human rights. in the u.s. an eviction ban than to soften the blow the coronavirus crisis expires today putting millions of americans a risk of losing their homes it comes as the daily infection rate has shown little sign of slowing down on the scale of more pain reports. with the united states hit harder than any other nation by the corona virus things could be getting worse with

many americans becoming a lot more vulnerable very soon after the eviction ban is lifted millions of americans who are renters who live in buildings with mortgages backed by the government could soon be out on the streets here in new york the record trends of folks that were applying for temporary housing in the. shelter system more than what we had seen and many many missing years and there has not been a response in terms of how we will address of course opening back up with people facing eviction so we're looking at just about thousands tens of thousands of families and households facing homelessness many for the 1st time in their lives now aside from the huge social shock this is also a public health emergency all of those who've been turned out of their homes will huddle together with relatives or seek shelter when hope 19 was added. it was a fight to try to get our elected officials to understand that folks need to be

isolated and that it's a keep them safe from cope 19 so we found that a lot of our homeless by this is. what actually avoid going into a shelter knowing that they were overcrowded and cubase and for the spread of over 19 and they would have rather it stay on the street whether that been an incoming weather whether that would have been without the proper resources on the street the pandemic has brought the u.s. economy to a standstill it appeared that the surge in job losses was subsiding but this past week job loss numbers have been rising once again many fear that the u.s. economy is too weak to swiftly recover certainly $3000000.00 americans are officially unemployed now the $600.00 per week unemployment enhanced meant is currently set to expire it could be extended if congress chooses to do that but it

appears that's unlikely at the moment. unfortunately by all accounts the senate republicans are drafting legislation that comes up short in a number of vital areas such as extending unemployment benefits or funding for rental assistance hazard premium pay for front line workers or investments in communities of color being ravaged by the virus and many other necessary provisions the u.s. senate is currently deadlocked over the economic stimulus bill with many hoping that it will pass in august meanwhile the infection rates in a number of u.s. states are rising and as it appears that a number of americans are on the brink of losing their incomes and their homes the situation in the united states regarding the pandemic is starting to look pretty bleak cable martin artsy new york. ok i'll be back with updates for you at the top of the hour in the meantime you can check out most stories if you had to our website not salty dot com.
